The movie world was abuzz this week about the role of Captain America being offered to Will Smith. And while I think that people would love Smith as the hero and would definitely bring justice to the role, you cant neglect the fact that some people prefer Steve Rogers to be white.
However we do know of a particular story in the comic books about the super secret serum being tested on other people before Steve Rogers and one of them happens to be a slave. So the probability of that happening isn’t so far-fetched as well.
Another reason why this topic is of importance; because the next Captain America is deemed to reprise the character in the Avengers movie in 2011, and will play among other super heroes Robert Downey Jr. and Samuel Jackson (who will play Nick Fury.. also previously white).
We’ll see what happens…
